Gary Fisher Ziggurat "beater"

I signed up here a while ago to share my road bike project (still in the 'parts gathering' stage, by the way :roll, and have been glued to the MTB section lately. So many amazing bikes in equally amazing condition.

Anyway, here's my own retro MTB. A 1998 (?) 'Fisher Ziggurat, bought on ebay, then fixed up into good, usable condition. The frame is scratched, dented and beaten, and it could use a new headset. Also considering a fork upgrade in the near future. Otherwise, though, it's a great 'everyday', old-school XC rig.

sweet ride. think your being a bit mean calling it a beater though

Thanks . The photos are actually quite flattering, though. It doesn't look quite so nice in the metal.

I used to race one of those.
Mine was xt/xtr equipped with 10th anni magura's and spinergy rev x rocks wheels. Too bad it broke.
It got replaced under warranty by a mt.tam. I loved the colors of the zigurat.
